> I think what she was implying is that people with disroderd thinking/mental illness did it to themselves, but actually they are born with an imbalance on chemical neurotransmitter function (speaking specifically of mood disorders and addiction.) I get a lot of this "misunderstanding from people and it angers me that instead of compassion, we get this "You must have done it to yourself somehow" attitude.

It angers me when people with the kind of depression you are talking about somehow think their depression is more valid than that of those of us whose moods are more environmentally triggered in nature.
I have experienced both but am noticeably more prone to the non endogenous kind.
They are both equally horrible but different.
